Games I've Played
Mostly Shooters and Stuff
- Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer
- Halo: Combat Evolved
Legendary solo
I really liked Halo: CE. It was a strong game, and I've had a soft spot for the Halo story - I don't think it's particularly deep or told with finesse, but it's fun!
- Halo 2
Heroic co-op
I've been telling myself I'm going to beat Halo 2 on legendary by myself since the day I beat Halo: CE on legendary. I feel the overwhelming urge to be able to say I've beaten the whole trilogy on the hardest difficulty! On the other hand, it's really goddamn hard.
- Halo 3
Legendary co-op Legendary solo All Skulls found
- Halo 3: ODST

Gave up after like 30 minutes
This game was terrible.
- Resistance: Fall of Man
Hard? co-op
- Resistance 3
Hard co-op
These games weren't very deep, but they had decent shooting and good weapons. Resistance 2 didn't have co-op, so I didn't play it - I just watched my friend do it.
- Killzone 3
Veteran? co-op
This game offered alternate color modes for colorblindness, which is awesome. Shame the dialogue and plot was so literally laughable.
- Resident Evil 5
Veteran? co-op Broke one level
My pal and I played this over one break, and we couldn't take it seriously. Once we beat it, we spent our hard-earned points on getting infinite ammo for a few weapons - and decided we'd try to unlock infinite ammo for every weapon. We didn't end up doing that, but we did get so practiced at going through one level - which drops the most money for the time you spend in it by far - that we beat the max difficulty time trial by half. The magnum in that game is ridiculously overpowered.
- F.3.A.R.
Fearless? co-op
As far as I can tell, these people have no idea what the phrase "survival horror" even means.

Halfway
- Final Fantasy 7

Halfway
I feel like including Final Fantasy games that I haven't finished is still reasonable because not finishing a Final Fantasy game involves a similar time commitment as finishing many other games.

Extremely Memorable
- Shadow of the Colossus
Hard Time Trials (Normal) Climbed the temple
I love this game so much I'm not even going to write about it. My thoughts would take up too much space.
- Ico
Ico was very pretty, and had some of the same quality that Shadow of the Colossus had, but it didn't tie together nearly so well.
- Mirror's Edge
Easy Test of Faith (Pacifist)
This game has the best platforming I've had the pleasure of experiencing - and I'm a sucker for good platforming.
- El Shaddai
Normal
I loved this game from an aesthetic point of view, but I kept waiting for the story to get interesting. I'm still waiting.
- Zeno Clash
The aesthetic really makes this game stand out.
- Iji
Normal Somewhat Pacifist
Iji remains one of my favorite games of all time, for its excellent pseudo-morality system - one of the best I've seen.
- Valkyrie Chronicles
Normal No deaths
Valkyrie Chronicles had such a cool gameplay and storytelling style that I have to include it.
- No More Heroes
Mild All Beam Katanas
It's hard to describe this game. It was fascinating.
- Elite Beat Agents
Sweatin'! Hard ROCK!
Probably my favorite rhythm game.
